Jordan's POV
Vee was too drunk and sleepy to even walk a straight line down the hallway of the hotel where she was supposed to stay for the night. Max informed me of Vee's photoshoot the next day, and I felt that it would be more convenient for her to rest at the same venue to avoid having to travel again while suffering from hangover. I asked for her car to be sent to the hotel since we left it at the bar when I used mine.
I hated myself for just standing at my spot and watching as she slammed her fragile body on the wall for support and tried not to trip. I had to concentrate real hard to fight my desire to wrap my arms around her small waist and pull her closer. I knew that she needed my assistance, but I would be damned once I get to touch her skin again. That was the same reason why I dumped her like a sack of potatoes in the backseat of my jeep earlier. Fuck knows what I might do. I cursed as my internal battle drove me closer to insanity. I banged my pistol's butt against the sealed elevator doors as though the feat would make us jump to the twenty-third floor in a flash.
Once the doors opened, I rushed out the elevator and impatiently swiped the key card to her suite, completely ignoring Vee as she struggled to walk. Her high heels were clicking out of rhythm as she took a misstep and almost toppled over. Again, I resisted the urge to reach for her hand. I watched as she threw her purse on the desk next to the couch but failing to make it land where she intended. She took off her sandals and moaned as her aching feet were freed, her purring sending shivers down my spine.
Without taking my eyes off her, I decided to put my pistol back in my ankle holster before setting it on the couch. My leather jacket which now made me feel a lot hotter than usual slid off my body as I placed it on the armrest. I noticed that I started breathing heavily as Vee also took off the shawl which covered her upper body.
Her strapless dress was revealed, giving me full view of her inviting cleavage which I had been avoiding to look at all night. Swallowing hard as she started undoing her side zipper to free her body, I felt heat slowly crawl from my face down to my nether region.
My mind wandered back to the bar as I recalled how I saw her when I arrived. I was looking for Frank who said that he just came in since his flight got delayed, and that he would meet Vee and me at the bar counter. I didn't expect that Vee had decided to join a party while she waited, and I was completely unprepared with how she looked after finishing a couple of drinks.
She didn't look trashy, no - but she looked the exact opposite of how a prim and proper princess should be. Her green, strapless dress matched her eyes which reminded me of freshly mowed lawn. Even from afar, I could see her eyes looking darker with specks of brown around her pupils. I knew that if light would hit her eyes, her long, curvy lashes would create a dark silhouette which hides her innocent stares and turns them into seductive ones. The combination of green and brown in her eyes always made me feel like I was lost in the middle of a virgin forest.
The longer I ogled her, the more I noticed the delicate curves of her body being emphasized as she moved with the music, her unkempt hair flowing freely behind her like wings. It was a sight to behold - I found myself drinking more bottles of beer than intended as she caught my eyes and continued dancing in a sensual way, her green eyes focused on me, suggesting things as though we were the only people at the bar.
Snapping back to the present, the next thing I knew, I was already touching her fingers, trying to stop her from giving me anything more than what I have been craving to see. Fuck knows how I want to see more. I cursed again, gritting my teeth as I was met with the most intoxicating green eyes I have ever seen.
"I-I need... to change, Jordan..." Vee moaned, her husky voice playing like a hypnotizing song in my ears. She stared into my eyes, seemingly searching for answers. "It's so... hot..." she gave a hiccup in between. Her fingers found mine, which I realized were still holding her zipper. I felt my resolve slowly die down as she guided my hand down the length of her soft torso to take off her dress. It helplessly slid down her hips, refusing to cling around her perfect thighs and dropped to her legs until it was a mere bundle of cloth around her feet. I could feel my eyes darkening as I took in the glorious body before me.
I didn't know that I was right when I suspected she wasn't wearing any bra underneath the dress - good thing she didn't complain when I threw the shawl over her shoulders that evening to shield my eyes from her cleavage. Her bare breasts looked like proud mounds sweetly staring at me with their pinkish-to-light brown nipples inviting me to come closer. I felt feverish as I tried to hold myself together despite the pulsating sensation down my crotch.
"Oh, gosh-"
My breathing hitched as she suddenly inhaled in shock, her hand quickly covering her assets and trying to shield them from my eyes. She frantically ran to the nearby queen-sized bed and as she bent to pull the damned comforter from it, I caught a glimpse of her beautiful ass enclosed in skintone panties. Again, I swallowed laboriously. I felt my hardness fighting to get freed with every movement she made.
She looked more flushed than earlier, her rosy cheeks looking brighter as she seemed to have gotten over her sleepiness after losing her dress.
"I-Im sorry, Jordan... I didnt mean to make you feel uncomfortable," she said.
I inhaled heavily to try and clear my mind. Yes, I was uncomfortable, but she should never apologize for it. I was the one who has been thinking of all the beautiful things I could do to her all night. I hated the mere thought of it, but the moment I saw her dancing to sultry music at the bar earlier that evening, I lost my wits. I had wanted to ravish her, take her right then and there on the dance floor. Swallowing hard to ease my dry throat, I started shaking my head.
"No, you didn't affect me one bit," I said almost instantly, my voice coming out harsh and cold. I could feel something disagree from inside my pants. I felt my muscles tighten all the more with every effort of trying to dissolve the image of Vee's body in my mind.
I only realized what I blurted when I caught Vee avert her gaze. Why did she look like she was about to cry? Oh, shit!
"No no no no, that wasn't what I meant - fuck- I meant, I didn't want to touch you - oh, bloody fuck!" I hit my own head as my words came out worse that the last. I could now see Vee's embarrassed expression and I hated myself all the more. I think I saw her wipe a tear as she turned her back on me. I felt like my heart stopped beating.
"Venera, please. I didn't mean it negatively... Im so sorry... I... I..."
I gave up trying to explain myself to avoid saying anything worse. There was an awkward silence which killed me every second as Vee stayed rooted to her spot. I suddenly wished that the huge speakers in the living area were blasting music so I could drown the nervous beating of my heart. I cautiously walked towards her, desperately wanting to embrace her from behind. What she said next, though, made me stop dead on my tracks.
"It must be uncomfortable seeing something unattractive as a child's body," she spat icily.
"What - ?" For some reason, the words sounded familiar. It took a few seconds before it hit me, and I let out another curse. I realized that she must have overheard me talking to Frank on the phone while I was driving earlier, when I said the same words as defense to his accusation of my desires for Vee.
"No, shit!" I ran my hand through my hair in frustration. "I only said it because I was afraid to admit that I wanted you for myself!" My words came out without filter and it clearly shocked her. It was too late to take them back.
"Fuck knows how hard I have to control myself every time I see your body. Every time I'm in the same room with you, I can't keep my eyes off you. I feel like burning with every inch of skin you unintentionally flash. I die each time you touch me but I can't touch you back. You don't have any idea how much restraint I have to practice each time I get too close to you just so I wouldn't jump at you and devour you! I feel like I'm losing my mind every time!"
Vee turned to me with confused eyes and parted lips which showed her surprise. Oh, I dearly wanted to taste that mouth if only she would let me.
"Why would you have to do that," she asked. "Why would you have to restrain yourself?" She looked into my eyes challengingly. Her minty breath mixed with the smell of tequila intoxicated me, and I couldn't bring myself to respond. Her rugged breathing made me lost for words and all I could do was stare at her angelic face. I swallowed hard yet again as my eyes fell on her luscious lips.
If my fists weren't clenched hard enough that my nails dug into my palms, I would think that I was in a dream sequence. It seemed I was trapped in eternity as Vee snaked her arms around my neck, neglecting the comforter which slid down her body. She was again standing close to me with only her long tresses covering her breasts, and her lace panties on.
She looked dreamily at my face, her thick lashes crowning her eyes made her stares more inviting. Her face was tilted as she looked up at me, coming closer with each breath she took. I felt her soft hands on my neck, her fingers pulling me in. As I obeyed, I felt her lower body graze mine, sending electric shivers down to my toes.
Her flat stomach pushed against my abdomen and the heat of her skin made all my walls of restraint crumble. Giving in to my weakness, I finally leaned in, grabbing a fistful of her soft hair. The delicate scent of jasmine filled my nostrils as I carefully ran my fingers through her long tresses. I never took notice of different flowers before, but her scent made me remember what I've learned in my Botany classes. I took her scent in, like my breathing depended on it. As I nuzzled the tip of my nose on her left temple, I became conscious of her fingers caressing my strong jawline. The ripples of heat that her fingers left made me weaker than I already was, making my head swirl while I still tried to hold on to the last bit of restraint in my body. However, the longer I resisted, the stronger my heart beats against my chest in protest, blood draining from all other parts of my body and concentrating only on the one in my pants. I knew I needed to claim her lips as though she would give me the nectar of life which would quench my eternal thirst.
I have always wondered if her lips still tasted sweet, like pure honey and vanilla, her favorite ice cream flavors. I could still clearly remember how her supple lips tasted the first time I kissed her - like they were smothered with the right amount of sugary sweetness and moisture. It turns out I wasn't wrong.
The moment my parched lips touched her moist ones, I felt drugged. My heartbeat escalated as Vee's lips moved tenderly against mine, melting my insides. It was the same feeling I had the first time I kissed her in front of the media men to announce our engagement. The same sweet lips I tasted when she freaked out after seeing me stupidly pointing a gun at her thinking that she was an enemy.
Fuck, I missed her lips.
Her sweet, shy kisses. Shy kisses. Those were the total opposite of what she was giving me now.
Her kiss started timid, soft and teasing, until I couldn't contain myself anymore and softly bit on her lower lip. I heard her subtly moan in pleasure as her tongue battled with mine, her lips dancing in rhythm with my hungry ones. As I pulled her body closer to mine, I heard another satisfied purr come out her lips, her gasp making her mouth part and grant access to my dominating tongue. I wanted to reach the recesses of her pretty mouth and take all the sweetness she could give.
I needed to breathe, and so did she. As we gasp for air, I realized that I couldn't resist being torn away from her even for a second. I trailed hot, open-mouthed kisses down her jawline, her neck, and her collarbone. I felt pleased with myself as she let out another soft moan and felt her hands running through my hair. My own hand which was holding a fistful of her locks tugged her head softly so she could reveal more of her smooth neck.
The mixed scent of jasmine and roses on her skin made me tremble in anticipation and I felt like burning. I was even more pleased when Vee appeared weak in the knees as she swung her arms around my shoulders once more to find support. The warmth of her embrace almost melted all my strength and I decided to carefully place her on the bed, while I hovered on top of her.
I had always wondered how it felt to have her soft body underneath mine. Every night I went to bed, the image of her usual pouting face would haunt me, and the thought of locking her in my arms never failed to cross my mind. I had always wanted to wipe away the evident irritation she had for me. Whatever reason she had for disliking me, I had always wanted to change it - while I had her with me, in my arms.
She opened her eyes, pupils dilated with desire that scorched me. She blinked several times trying to focus on my face, her body moving in pleasurable slowness as she happily stretched her arms. Then realization hit me.
She was still sleepy and drunk. And there's no way I'm taking advantage of her like that.
It took all the strength in my years of training in the military to muster my will to get off the bed and do nothing more of Vee. I felt every nerve of my body protest, but I willed myself to gather my crumbled restraint.
As I stood beside the bed looking down at her, I saw her smile sweetly, burying her face onto the soft pillows. She yawned a few times and batted her long lashes before getting pulled into a deep slumber.
